James Comey and The FBI will present a recommendation to Loretta Lynch, Attorney General of the Department of Justice, that includes a cogent argument that the Clinton Foundation is an ongoing criminal enterprise engaged in money laundering and soliciting bribes in exchange for political, policy and legislative favors to individuals, corporations and even governments both foreign and domestic.Link:http://uspolitics24.com/hillary-clinton-indicted-federal-racketeering-charges/

A $15-per-hour federal minimum wage, a European-style tax on carbon emissions to curb climate change, a hard asset cap on the big banks (which would force them to shrink themselves), a single-payer health care system, tuition-free public colleges and universities, and a friendlier posture toward the Palestinians.Only progressive Bernie Sanders supports all of the above.

President Barack Obama visited Hiroshima this week. There he called for the end of nuclear weapons, while he failed to apologize to the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki for this horrendous nuclear holocaust that his predecessor Harry Truman caused, at a time when Japan was almost already defeated, according to scholars.

Later on in the PBS News Hour it was reported that Obama and the next imperialist administrations are going to spend 1 Trillion U.S. dollars to "modernize" the nuclear arsenal of the USA, during the next ten years.

He should have also said: "Watch me while I speak out of both sides of my mouth."

As part of its seven-day series of new stamp issues for World Stamp Show-NY 2016, the United States Postal Service is reaching back to the 19th century to recreate six stamps in a set it is calling Classics Forever.

The new stamps have engraved designs and are intaglio-printed to make them similar to the originals.

Details of how the designs were reproduced were not immediately available from the Postal Service, and there is no listing for an engraver or portrait artist in the technical details published by the Postal Service.

Three of the stamps pay tribute to George Washington, two feature Benjamin Franklin, and one honors Abraham Lincoln.

The stamps will be issued June 1 during the stamp show at the Javits Center in New York City. The dedicating official for the Postal Service will be Gary C. Reblin, USPS new products and innovation vice president.

Entrance to the stamp show is free, and the 11 a.m. ceremony is open to the public.

WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, the former chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, endorsed former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for president on Wednesday, calling presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump "an unmitigated disaster." (NJ.com)JG: If you were expecting that this most corrupt of U.S. Senators was going to endorse progressive Bernie Sanders, then you must surely belong to the Party of Fools, USA.Birds of the same feathers always fly and stick together. I bet corrupt Menendez is even a Super Delegate from NJ in the corrupt Democratic Party, and will cast his vote for corrupt Hillary in the Philadelphia Democratic Party Convention.Notice that in the article from NJ.com they do not inform the public that Robert Menendez has been indicted for corruption and is awaiting trial. He may spend time behind bars if he is convicted, unless he can buy the judge, something that is common in capitalist societies.WHAT A CROOK!http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2016/05/menendez_trump_would_be_unmitigated_disaster_as_pr.html#incart_river_home

If I were to travel to take a short vacation in the Dominican Republic, Cuba's closest neighboring island, I would get DOP/USD = 45.90626, according to the website http://themoneyconverter.com/USD/DOP.aspx.

I would like to have someone from the Cuban government explain to me why do they continuing promoting this fraud.

Let the Cuban National Peso float in the free market. Get rid of the CUC.

She travels to it and is taken before the Indian Chief and the main elders.
She starts on a six hour spiel about how great things are going to be when the people elect her President of the United States.
At the end she asks for comments from those assembled there.
The wise Indian Chief says: “Well, I see and hear a lot of clouds and thunder, but I don't see any rain.”

Augusto
Nicolás Sandino
(May 18, 1895 – February 21, 1934), also known as Augusto
César Sandino,
(Spanish pronunciation: [auˈgusto
ˈsesar sanˈdino]), was a Nicaraguanrevolutionary
and leader of a rebellion
between 1927 and 1933 against the U.S. military occupation of
Nicaragua. He was referred to as a "bandit"
by the United
States government; his exploits made him a hero throughout much
of Latin
America, where he became a symbol of resistance to United States'
domination. He drew units of the United
States Marine Corps into an undeclared guerrilla
war. The United States troops withdrew from the country in 1933
after overseeing the election and inauguration of President Juan
Bautista Sacasa, who had returned from exile. The re-call of the
Marines was largely due to the Great
Depression.Sandino
was assassinated in 1934 by National Guard forces of Gen. Anastasio
Somoza García, who went on to seize power in a coup
d'état
two years later. After being elected by an overwhelming vote as
president in 1936, Somoza Garcia resumed control of the National
Guard and established a dictatorship and family dynasty that would
rule Nicaragua for more than 40 years. Sandino's political legacy was
claimed by the Sandinista
National Liberation Front (FSLN), which finally overthrew the
Somoza
government in 1979.Sandino
is revered in Nicaragua, and in 2010 was unanimously named a
"national hero" by the nation's congress.[2]
Sandino's political descendants, along with the icons of his
wide-brimmed hat and boots, and influence of his writings from the
years of warfare against the U.S. Marines, continue to help shape the
national identity of Nicaragua.[2]

Please notice that in the USA anyone who dares to oppose the criminal
activities of Yankee imperialism is referred as a "bandit."
Yankee-supported Batista used to say the same thing about the M-26-7
Movement. But the people knew that Batista was the real bandit and
that he worked for the Yankees. On Jan 1, 1959 he had to put his tail
between his legs and fled the country in ignominy. Cuba was finally
FREE.

CBS was there when it happened. It took
only eight days, but one of them was faulty and it was recalled.

God was born to a virgin who never had
sexual intercourse in her life. No one has ever explained whether she
was a lesbian or not, or if she was a member of the LGBT crowd
favored by Obama.

In the heavens, besides the Microsoft
clouds, we have a 'creature' that is very old and who has an
extremely long white beard. No one ever told him about Gillette razor
blades.

When this 'thing' gets very upset, he
starts moving furniture around the heavens, he calls them thunder.

This 'thing' always seems to be
extremely pissed off. It you are a naughty little boy or girl who
stole Hershey bars from the supermarket shelf, he will send you for
eternity to a place he calls 'hell.'

You are never allowed to scream when
you are sent to hell.

What's the difference between a Jew and
a Pizza? The latter does not scream when placed in the oven.

God's favorite creatures he calls
politicians. He created them from very large piles of shit. Their
stink reaches God in the heavens every day of the year.

If you are 'good' during your life, God
will give you 12,000 virgins to play with for the rest of your
existence in the heavens. Bring your own condoms. Thy don't have
BOGO's there.

The American imperialists continue with their wishful thinking dreams of overturning Cuban Socialism. They still don't get it, after 193 countries at the United Nations have repudiated and condemned their failed policies toward Cuba.

Maybe it's over for the insiders and the party establishment, but
the voters in Indiana had a different idea. The campaign wasn't
over for them. It isn't over for the voters in West Virginia. It
isn't over for Democrats in Oregon, New Jersey and Kentucky.
It isn't over for voters in California and all the other
states with contests still to come.

JG: do not listen to Hillary's wishful thinking.

Remember what Yogi Berra once said: "It ain't over till it's over."

And people, do not forget, only Bernie Sanders is honest to lead us to a true victory in November.

At a very early age I fell in love with book libraries. My
school, being a religion-based institution, had an awful library. It
concentrated on the histories of those individuals they called ‘saints.’ It was
a total waste of my time to go there. I was never very interested in religion.

But the Cuban dictator that used to rule the island of Cuba, for the
benefit of the Yankees, did build a stupendous library in Havana. It was called
the Biblioteca
Nacional de Cuba. After Batista’s overthrow, I used to visit it a lot.

What I liked very much was the total silence that reigned
there. People talked in whispers. You could hear a pin drop. You could
concentrate on doing research and/or reading good books on all kinds of
subjects.

Now, after the “invention” of cell phones and screaming
babies, libraries have been ‘destroyed.’

JG: The Democratic Party no longer represents the interests of the working class. They now represent the oligarchical 1% capitalist elites. Democrats are no longer the Party of Democracy. There is no difference between them and the Republicans. One party: The Capitalist Party, with two equally corrupt branches, Republicans and Democrats. For the suckers who are born every minute.

Hillary Clinton will continue the status quo of the disastrous Barack Obama presidency, you will get more of the same crap.
